How does perception or belief affect people's ability to adapt to change?

English
1 answer:
nordsb [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer + Explanation:

<u>We must believe to see anything. Perception is belief. We see what we believe.</u>

What something looks like or how our body works are fairly easy concrete problems. But there are beliefs which are far more abstract and even metaphysical. If you are a pessimist, the downsides will always be clearer than the upsides. If you believe fundamentally that all people are good at heart, you may be gullible and open to those who may take advantage of you. And even many who don’t believe in God will talk about their luck or their karma. These aren’t perspectives or opinions. Our beliefs may be based on perspectives or opinions, but once we believe them they are as real as a jalapeno is hot or a terrorist is terrifying.

We act based on what we see, and we see based on what we already believe. Belief doesn’t just affect perception. Belief is perception. If we want to change what we see, we must change what we believe. But not only that, we also must unsee what we’ve already seen. Unfortunately, that’s not easy. It may not even be possible. And that’s why it’s so hard to change how we perceive anything.

Answer:

A heightened sensitivity to the promises of life, exceptional hopefulness, and a romantic readiness is what is 'gorgeous' about Gatsby according to Nick.

Jay Gatsby is the central character from the novel 'The Great Gatsby', whereas Nick Carraway is the narrator of the story. Nick quotes Gatsby as 'There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life.' Nick further states that Gatsby is blessed with romantic readiness because he has always been a hopeful dreamer. For Nick, Gatsby is his idealist- the one who always dreams big and who believes in attaining one's deepest desires.
